Good read and spot on:
Since the day he took office a year ago, President Donald Trump has been the subject of relentless media attacks.
He’s been targeted with negative media coverage like no president in recent history, even as the stock market soars and thousands of new jobs are created.
Which begs the question – why exactly does the media hate Trump?
The easy answer is that the mainstream media is dominated by liberal reporters who were desperate to see Trump’s rival, Hillary Clinton, win the presidency.
But the whole truth is a lot more complicated.
The fact is, mainstream media outlets know they created Trump… they just never expected (or wanted) him to become president.
And now the media is doing everything it can to try to undermine Trump’s presidency.
The numbers don’t lie. The same media that rails against Trump now did everything it could to ensure he became the Republican candidate for president.
At the start of the Republican primaries in February 2016, there were 17 different candidates seeking the party’s nomination.
The collection of candidates was difficult to sort through… and it was hard for most candidates to get any national traction.
But the media found a candidate it wanted to advance in Trump. From February until the primaries ended in June, Trump got media coverage with an estimated value of $55 million, according to a Harvard study.
The next closest candidate, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, got $19 million less in coverage.
And despite what’s happening now, the coverage of Trump at the time was not negative.
The Harvard study found that 63 percent of coverage from the New York Times and 74 percent of the coverage from USA Today was either positive or neutral.
So did the mainstream media actually want Trump to be president?
